Response:

x equals 7

Step-by-step breakdown:

Information:

∠DEF is 117°

∠DEG measures (12x + 1)°

∠GEF is (5x - 3)°

Objective:

determine the value of x

Calculation:

The equation is ∠DEF = ∠DEG + ∠GEF

117° = (12x + 1)° + (5x - 3)°

117° = 17x - 2

Thus, x = 7

In 2010, Rafik bought a house. In 2015, Rafik sold the house to Bianca. He made a 20% profit on the sale. In 2019, Bianca sold t
zzz [4022]

Answer:

£170,000

Step-by-step explanation:

En 2010, Rafik adquirió una casa. Supongamos que el precio de compra fue $x. En 2015, Rafik vendió la casa a Bianca obteniendo un 20% de ganancia. Esto se traduce en 20% de x lo que equivale a 0.2 × x = 0.2x. Por tanto, Rafik vendió la casa a Bianca por x + 0.2x = 1.2x. Bianca compró la casa a 1.2x.

La casa fue vendida por Bianca en 2019 con una pérdida del 5%. Esto implica que el 5% de pérdida equivale a 0.05(1.2x) = 0.06x.

Por consiguiente, la venta de la casa por Bianca se realizó a 1.2x - 0.06x = 1.14x. Dado que la casa se vendió por £193,800.

⇒ 1.14x = 193,800

x = 193,800/1.14

x = £170,000

Rafik pagó £170,000 por la casa en 2010.

A waterbed filled with water has the dimensions 8ft by 7 ft by .75 ft taking the density of water to be 1.00/gm cubed how many k
Svet_ta [4321]

Density can be defined as:

D = \frac{m}{V}

Where:

m is mass

V stands for volume

To isolate the mass, we derive:

m = DV

Volume can be expressed as:

V = (8) * (7) * (0.75)

V = 42ft ^ 3

We then use the following conversion:

1foot = 0.3048m

After applying the conversion, we arrive at:

V = 42 * (0.3048) ^ 3

V = 1.19m ^ 3

Additionally, we have these conversions:

1m = 100cm

1Kg = 1000g

When we apply these conversions for density, we conclude:

D = (1\frac{g}{cm^3})((\frac{100}{1})^3\frac{cm^3}{1m^3})(\frac{1}{1000}\frac{Kg}{g})=1000\frac{Kg}{m^3}

Finally, the mass of the water required is:

m = (1000) * (1.19)

m = 1190

Answer:

A total of 1190 kilograms of water is needed to fill the waterbed.

Two ferries travel across a lake 50 miles wide. One ferry goes 5 miles per hour slower than the other. If the slower ferry leave
Svet_ta [4321]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the first ferry.

Consequently, the second ferry's speed is x-5, as it travels 5 miles per hour slower.

The time taken by the first ferry is calculated as distance divided by speed = \frac{50}{x}

The time taken by the second ferry equals \frac{50}{x-5}.

Since the second ferry departs one hour earlier, the times differ by 1 hour.

\frac{50}{x-5}-\frac{50}{x}=1\\50x-50(x-5)=x(x-5)\\250 = x^2-5x\\x^2-5x-250 =0\\(x-10)(x+5) =0\\x=18.5, -13.5

The speed cannot be negative.

Thus, the speed of the first ferry is determined to be 18.5 mph,

and for the second, slower ferry, it equals 13.5 mph.
